Turbo + Nitrous I know this is not what most of you are expecting. This is actually a question... unfortunately not my setup.
I was wondering, I know nitrous on top of a turbo can have good cooling/ power effects, but everything I've ever read about it isn't any more specific. I was wondering whether the power gains were expontenial due to the decrease of temperature? Or is it just like spraying nitrous on an N/A engine? How much nitrous is possible with a forced induction setup with all the forged goodies? Could I run twin turbo at 15-18 psi with 100-200 shot of nitrous? Maybe nitrous on on top of 15-18 psi is overkill...
Anyway, thanks in advance.

turbo and nitrous together are cool 
i would think on a non intercooled set up the nitrous would have a bigger effect. if you have a killer intercooler than i doubt you would see the doubling effect.

with 2 x .024 jets (50 shot) I'm seeing around 60rwhp on the dyno. I am shutting it off at 5900rpm though so with more boost it may make more of a difference, thats with 80 degree IATs and 1000psi bottle pressure on a dry kit.
Just waiting for my roll bar to get some track times, its hard to see whats really going on with a loose converter on the dyno - feels good driving it though
